Best of luck to you tonight!

I hope they show a clip from the parade...

So cool to see horses like Might and Power and other residents from Living Legends.

Aaah well if not we shall have to find a replay of that.

Can't wait! Happy Cup Day!

If Shamrocker was drawn better, I would love her, but I think Niwot and Dunaden will beat her. Fox Hunt will also be there I think. Ill be betting on all 4 and boxing them to try and pay for my trip to the States..

I'll go with Americain, At First Sight, Lucas Cranach, Dunaden as possible winners, and for tris fill out with Jukebox Jury, Unusual Suspect, Red Cordeaux, and Niwot.

I have to admit I love the gate-crazy Glass Harmonium, and I"ll be cheering him on as he's leading at the top of the stretch (as he's subsequently passed).

Good luck, happy Cup Day!
